It was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. If I hadn't driven there with a group of friends, I would have walked out. Steve Carrel was an abortion, and the chick they paired him with was somehow even worse. Their entire roles were basically a Napoleon Dynamite and Deb ripoff...except without the humor.

It's pretty obvious that 90% of the movie was improv, but it was like the director had them shoot every scene three times and then just went with it regardless of the fact that there was nothing funny about it.

I love Will Ferrel, but everything about his comedy in this movie has been done 20 times before. How many times do I need to hear him say some zany variation of "Great Ceasar's Ghost" before that horse is declared dead?

Its two hours of these guys saying random stupid things and hoping for a cheap laugh. I absolutely can not fathom how anyone could find this movie funny.

That does it for me. I was on the fence, but now I am going to see it as soon as possible.

I saw this tonight. Not as good as the first one, but its fun and dumb. Don't look for any greater life meaning here. But its an OK way to blow off a couple hours. Lots of cameos in the last 20 minutes.

Overall, I came away a bit disappointed. It had its funny moments, but it was primarily formed as a reprise to the original rather than a sequel if that makes any sense. It's worth seeing if you were a big fan of the original, but I doubt it'll be winning over any new fans.

Still, the characters are fun, and like I said, there are some pretty funny moments. I just think they could've done a lot better. Oh well.

I enjoyed it. I didn't love the first one, and found myself aghast at some of the stupidity, but overall I liked the satire and several of the individual moments (pipe-hittin' bitches was an awesome reference, even if it was anachronistic).

Will Ferrell's latest hit movie will return to cinemas this week - with almost every joke replaced with a new one.

In an industry first, Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues, which was released in December, will be refreshed and renamed Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues Continued - using footage shot, but not used, in the follow up to the 2004 original.

It will screen in 1000 cinemas across the United States this week.

"We started talking and realized, we can replace every single joke in the movie with another joke," director Adam McKay told the New York Times. McKay also wrote the film with Ferrell.

He said there were some jokes left behind in the re-released film, but 95 percent of them had been replaced with alternate gags that hadn't been used the first time around - 763 new jokes, to be exact.

The new version will be longer than the original, clocking in at just under two hours.

It seems it isn't money that's behind the push to re-release; Anchorman 2 has already made more than $200 million in worldwide ticket sales. Instead McKay said the idea came from the improvised nature of the films, which left a lot of unused, alternate takes from shooting.

"This is a stitched up, Frankenstein version," he told the newspaper. "You'll either love it or hate it."

It's not the first time films have been re-jigged, but it is the most extreme. In 1966, Woddy Allen added dialogue and a new storyline to his film What's Up, Tiger Lily.

I read an interesting article that Anchorman 2 was a disappointment because it was over-marketed. People saw so many clips of Ron Burgundy between Dodge commercials, ESPN, etc... that people felt like they pretty much saw the whole movie. It wasn't even that people got sick of him. Pretty unusual, when you think about it.

I think it's a genius move. I actually hope it gets a nice box office boost simply because it'll promote to continue thinking outside the box in an industry that's risk adverse to an extreme.

Watched Stepbrothers the other night again, and laughed my ass off.

I don't see this as being anywhere close to genius, outside the box, or risky. They picked up the scraps they didn't feel were good enough to serve you in the first place, and are charging you for it. There is also no risk either, as it cost them basically nothing to make.

I'm not saying it won't be good, but there's just nothing genius about it.
